I rotate two USB hard drives for offsite backups. I removed one and put in the other and noticed the volume label was that of the old one (safely disconnected), and that I couldn't access the volume even though the drive letter showed. After rebooting the computer nothing changed, but I could run chkdsk on it. It corrected several problems in the MFT, and now subsequent chkdsk's show no problems found. I have one file still visible on the root of the drive, but the backup folder and subfolders are not there. Looking at the properties of the drive shows the used and free space that indicate these files are still there. I can format, recreate the folders and just start over, but I'm interested in trying to solve it if I can. Anyone seen this before?
